What kind of Boston Red Sox fan would we be if we didn’t brag about share the news about pitcher—and cancer survivor—Jon Lester’s no-hitter against the Kansas City Royals last night.
Clay Buchholz, he of the fingernail injury, threw a no-hitter last year in his Major League debut. (And a shout-out goes to fellow Sox fans Caesar and Pat for joining the excitement).
As for Lester, he’s the first Sox leftie to throw a no-hitter since 1956. Check out the ESPN highlights here (2m, 38s):
Such a great story! Congrats to Jon Lester!
Thanks, Tony . . . glad you liked it, too!
